[0033] 2) Data cleaning and standardization: Remove outliers, missing values, and duplicate data to ensure data accuracy and completeness; standardize data from different sources and units to unify the data dimensions and units.

[0034] (2) Step 2: Establishment and optimization of AI-driven absorption and desorption mechanism model 1) Based on the absorption and desorption performance of the high-efficiency absorbent, the absorption and desorption mechanism model was established using Aspen software. The project-related input parameters obtained in step 1 were input to calculate the state parameters of each point in the system and the amount of electricity and steam required by the system, as follows: Establishing an Aspen absorption and desorption model: In Aspen, the process flow is established, operating conditions are set, and the absorbent's absorption and desorption properties are input to create a carbon capture absorption and desorption mechanism model. After the process simulation model is established, the project's capture capacity and flue gas composition parameters are input to calculate state parameters such as flue gas flow rate, absorbent flow rate, temperature, and pressure at each point in the system, as well as the system's required power and steam.

[0035] 2) Use the collected data to train the machine learning algorithm, establish the AI model, and optimize the parameters of the Aspen absorption and desorption model, as follows: a) AI model establishment: First, collect other project case data and input it into the established model to obtain multiple historical data. Second, simulate multiple projects and collect historical calculation data of the Aspen model. Use the input-output relationship in the historical data to establish an AI model, train the model to predict system performance indicators such as capture efficiency and energy consumption using methods such as random forest regression, neural networks, and support vector machines, and provide a basis for optimizing operation. This model can automatically learn the characteristics and rules in the data of each project and optimize the parameters of the Aspen model.

[0036] b) Model optimization and feedback: Feedback the optimization results of the AI model to the Aspen process simulation model to adjust key parameters such as the reaction rate of the absorbent, the equilibrium constant, and the operating pressure of the regeneration tower, and improve the accuracy of the model.

[0037] (3) Step three: Fluid dynamics simulation and AI analysis 1) Use the RNG model (turbulence model), SIMPLE algorithm (velocity pressure coupling), and discrete phase model (DPM, liquid droplet spraying) to describe the flue gas in the calculation region as a continuous medium in the Euler coordinate system, solve the equations for the continuous phase, and solve the particle trajectory of the discrete phase by integrating the particle force differential equation in the Lagrangian coordinate system. Establish a full-flow two-phase flow Fluent fluid dynamics model for the absorption and desorption system, input the state parameters obtained from the Aspen process simulation calculation into the software, solve the fluid dynamics equations, and obtain the velocity distribution, concentration distribution, and heat and mass transfer process of the absorbent and flue gas in the tower.

[0038] 2) Feedback the data obtained from each Fluent simulation to the AI model and use deep learning algorithms to analyze the data to determine the optimal fluid flow parameters. Further, feedback to the Aspen process simulation model for further process simulation calculation, and modify the key structure and operation parameters of the absorption tower, such as tower diameter, packing layer, absorbent circulation amount, and inlet inclination angle, as follows: a) Fluent simulation: Input the flow rate, temperature, and other state parameters of the flue gas and absorbent obtained from the Aspen process simulation calculation, as well as the tower diameter of the absorption tower and regeneration tower, and packing parameters into the two-phase flow dynamics model to solve the fluid dynamics equations and obtain the velocity distribution, concentration distribution, and heat and mass transfer process of the absorbent and flue gas in the tower.

[0041] (4) Step four: Intelligent control of material and energy balance in the whole process 1) Based on the existing key parameters of absorption and desorption, use Excel macro tools to create material and energy balance analysis software to calculate and analyze the material flow and energy change in the production process. Input the optimized state parameters (such as flue gas volume, tower diameter, etc.) obtained from steps two and three into the material and energy balance software to calculate the input, output and storage of materials in the system throughout the process, ensuring that the system maintains a stable state under different operating conditions. Calculate the CO2 absorption amount in the absorption tower, the circulation amount of the solvent in the system, the steam consumption and other key data, and further compare and correct the circulation amount, steam consumption and other key data obtained from steps two and three.

[0042] 2) Embed AI prediction and optimization functions to intelligently control the material input, output and energy conversion of the system. The embedded AI model can predict the required absorbent amount and steam volume according to the real-time flue gas flow and composition changes that may occur during actual operation, and provide suggestions for adjusting operating parameters. Finally, output the system operating parameters and operation suggestion documents under different conditions to ensure that the system operates in a stable, efficient and energy-saving state.

[0048] (6) Intelligent generation and optimization of engineering design documents, the process is as shown in Figure 5

[0049] 1) According to the optimized design parameters and simulation results, use AI technology to automatically generate detailed engineering design documents, including system layout diagram, equipment selection, operation manual, etc., as follows: a) Document template establishment: according to the requirements of carbon capture project and industry standards, establish the template of engineering design documents, including system layout diagram, equipment selection table, operation manual, etc.; the template defines the structure, format and content requirements of the document, providing the basis for intelligent generation of documents.

[0050] ​b) Intelligent document generation: automatically transfer the optimized design parameters and simulation results to the document generation system, use natural language processing (NLP) and automatic drawing algorithm to automatically generate detailed engineering design documents; the system can automatically fill in relevant data and information according to the requirements of the template, and generate accurate and complete document content.

[0051] 2) Use AI rule engine and machine learning algorithm to intelligently review and optimize the generated engineering design documents. The AI system can check the data consistency, logical correctness and compliance with industry standards in the document, and automatically correct the problems found. At the same time, according to the optimization suggestions of the system, the design scheme in the document is further improved to ensure the quality and operability of the engineering design document.

[0052] Specific examples: In a certain carbon capture project, the design goal is to capture 10t / h and the capture efficiency is 90%, and the system energy consumption requirement reaches the industry leading level. According to these requirements, the basic configuration of the carbon capture system is determined, including 1 set of washing tower, 1 set of absorption tower, 1 set of desorption tower, 3 sets of heat exchanger, 1 set of reboiler, 5 sets of circulating pump, 1 set of compression drying system, 1 set of refrigeration liquefaction system and other equipment and its operating conditions.

[0053] (1) Step one: data integration and preprocessing Collect the data of this project, including the capture amount of the project 10t / h, the capture efficiency 90%, the flue gas parameters (temperature 58℃, pressure 0.8kpa, CO2 content 12%, O2 content 5%, H2O content 14%, N2 content 69% and other data), steam parameters (temperature 135℃, pressure 0.4MPa (gauge pressure)) and other data. The collected data is cleaned and standardized, such as the conversion of flue gas standard flow and actual flow, the reasonableness check of flue gas components, etc., to remove outliers, missing values and repeated data, etc., to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the data.

[0054] (2) Step two: AI driven absorption and desorption mechanism model establishment and optimization Based on the absorption and desorption performance of high-efficiency absorbent, an absorption and desorption mechanism model is established using Aspen software, which automatically imports the relevant parameters of the project in step one, obtains the gas-liquid phase equilibrium, mass balance and energy balance parameters, and calculates the flue gas flow at each point in the system, such as the flue gas flow into the washing tower 47138.05 Nm 3 / h, the absorbent circulation amount 239m 3 / h, the flue gas entering the absorption tower temperature 40℃, the lean liquid entering the absorption tower temperature 40℃, the absorption tower pressure drop 2.5kpa, the regeneration tower bottom temperature 110℃, the tower top pressure 18kpa, etc. The system requires 1959 degrees / h (including compression liquefaction) of power and 10.91t / h of steam.

[0055] In addition, historical data (other project cases) and simulation results of the Aspen model can be used to train the neural network algorithm. Through continuous iterative training, the AI model can accurately predict and optimize key parameters in the Aspen model, such as the actual absorption rate of the absorbent in the tower 0.196 mol CO2 / (L·min), the desorption rate 0.095 mol CO2 / (L·min), etc. The optimization results of the AI model are fed back to the Aspen model to adjust the model parameters and improve the accuracy and prediction ability of the model.

[0056] (3) Step three: fluid dynamics simulation and AI analysis Using the flue gas flow, absorbent flow, temperature, pressure, and other state parameters obtained in the above steps, the fluid dynamics equations are solved by Fluent software to obtain the velocity distribution, concentration distribution, and heat and mass transfer process of the absorbent and flue gas in the tower. By simulating the fluid behavior at different flow rates and inputting the Fluent simulation data into the AI model, the velocity distribution, concentration distribution, and other data are analyzed using convolutional neural networks (CNN) to determine the optimal flue gas flow rate of 1.52 m / s, the inlet inclination angle of 15°, and the optimal liquid-gas ratio of 4.985 L / m³.

[0057] The optimal parameters obtained by AI analysis are fed back to the Fluent software to modify the tower diameter, filler layer, and absorbent circulation amount of the absorption tower, and determine the tower diameter of the absorption tower as 3.5 m, the filler layer as 3 layers with a total height of 15 m, the tower diameter of the regeneration tower as 1.8 m, the filler layer as 2 layers with a total height of 12 m, and set the liquid collector, gas-liquid distributor, and other devices.

[0058] (4) Step four: intelligent control of material and energy balance in the whole process The flue gas flow, absorbent circulation amount, temperature, pressure, and other state parameters obtained above are input into the material and energy balance software. Through full-process calculation of the input, output, and storage of materials in the system, the system is ensured to maintain a stable state under different operating conditions. The calculation results show that the absorption amount of CO2 in the absorption tower is 10 tons per hour, the desorption amount of CO2 in the desorption tower is 10 tons per hour, and the circulation amount of the solvent in the system is 235 m³ / h. 3 / h (corrected), and promptly identified and corrected potential issues in the system, such as solvent loss and energy imbalance. The required hourly absorbent replenishment was determined to be 3.25 kg, and the required desalinated water replenishment was 32 kg. By feeding these results back into the simulation model for verification and optimization, a multi-dimensional interactive mechanism was established, enabling a comprehensive analysis of system performance. Ultimately, further optimization of system energy and material consumption was achieved, resulting in calculated system power requirements of 1878 kWh / h (including compression and liquefaction), steam production of 10.47 t / h, and absorbent loss of 3.25 kg / h.

[0059] In addition, the prediction and optimization functions of AI can be combined to predict the absorption dose and steam volume required by the system based on the real-time flue gas flow and composition changes that may occur during actual operation, and propose operating parameter adjustment suggestions. Finally, the system operating parameters and operation suggestion documents under different states are output to ensure that the system operates in a stable, efficient and energy-saving state. The predicted load changes are referenced below.

[0061] (5) Comprehensive evaluation of multi-dimensional interaction mechanism and system performance A multi-dimensional interactive platform based on AI was established to integrate and interactively analyze the calculation results of Aspen, Fluent, and material energy balance software, realizing real-time sharing and interaction of data in steps (2), (3), and (4). Utilizing AI's pattern recognition and data analysis capabilities, various performance indicators of the system were comprehensively evaluated and optimized, ultimately achieving a carbon capture rate of 93.2%, a regenerative heat consumption of 2.35 GJ / t CO2, an absorbent loss of 0.325 kg / t CO2, and a full liquefaction power consumption of 187.8 kWh / tCO2. By comparing with historical data and industry standards, the technical indicators of this design have reached the industry-leading level.
